The first full trailer for the all-female Ghostbusters reboot is here, and the feedback is good: io9 calls it "perfect," and Deadline reports that Sony's official unveiling event Wednesday was attended by a number of "mega-fans" who gave it a standing ovation and "shouted for it to play again." The movie, out July 15, stars Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones. "It looks pretty damn good," declares MoviePilot.com. Engadget's take: "Oh boy, does it have us intrigued."

Regarding the two original "Ghostbusters" films, of all the collaborations between Bill Murray and Harold Ramis, both are my least favorite. Here is my order, from most favorite to least: "Stripes" (1981), "Caddyshack" (1980), "Groundhog Day" (1993), "Meatballs" (1979), "Ghostbusters" (1984), and lastly "Ghostbusters II" (1989). (These five films are the only full motion picture collaborations between these two men.) Yes, I even liked "Meatballs" more than I liked "Ghostbusters"! Ave atque vale, Mr. Ramis.

i hope Harold Ramis haunts them for this! (The ironies would be so perfect...)
